remanufactured products, and reconditioned or upgraded products, shall be as provided in the applicable Product specification in
effect at the time of purchase or in the accompanying software license.

Products) are warranted against defects in workmanship and materials for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of shipment.
Spare parts may be new or originate from returned units under the conditions set forth in subsection D below.

returned products and that have been tested as meeting applicable specifications for equivalent new material and Products. The
sole obligation of Seller for defective hardware Products is limited to repair or replacement (at Seller’s option) on a “return to service
depot” basis with prior Seller authorization. Customer is responsible for shipment to the Seller and assumes all costs and risks
associated with this transportation; return shipment to the Customer will be at Seller's expense. Customer shall be responsible for
return shipment charges for product returned where Seller determines there is no defect (“No Defect Found”), or for product returned

Seller is not responsible for any damage to or loss of any software programs, data or removable data storage media, or the
restoration or reinstallation of any software programs or data other than the software, if any, installed by Seller during manufacture
of the Product.
(E) Original Warranty Period Except for the warranty applying solely to the repaired component arising from a repair service as
provided in Section C above, the aforementioned provisions do not extend the original warranty period of any Product that had either
been repaired or replaced by Seller.
(F) Warranty Provisions The above warranty provisions shall not apply to any Product (i) which has been repaired, tampered with,
altered or modified, except by Seller’s authorized service personnel; (ii) in which the defects or damage to the Product result from
normal wear and tear, misuse, negligence, improper storage, water or other liquids, battery leakage, use of parts or accessories not
approved or supplied by Symbol, or failure to perform operator handling and scheduled maintenance instructions supplied by Seller;
(iii) which has been subjected to unusual physical or electrical stress, abuse, or accident, or forces or exposure beyond normal use
within the specified operational and environmental parameters set forth in the applicable Product specification; nor shall the above
warranty provisions apply to any expendable or consumable items, such as batteries, supplied with the Product.
EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTY OF TITLE AND THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES STATED ABOVE, SELLER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES
ON PRODUCTS FURNISHED HEREUNDER INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR USE. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED BY LAW ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE LIMITED
WARRANTY PERIOD. SOME STATES OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY
LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN
SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES, FOR SUCH PRODUCTS, SOME EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY MAY
NOT APPLY.
The stated express warranties are in lieu of all obligations or liabilities on the part of Seller for damages, including but not limited
to, special, indirect or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with the use or performance of the Product or service.
Seller’s liability for damages to Buyer or others resulting from the use of any Product or service furnished hereunder shall in no way
exceed the purchase price of said Product or the fair market value of said service, except in instances of injury to persons or property.
